GPS leads man off cliff

A MAN who died in a New Year’s Eve cliff fall after becoming lost in the Kanangra-Boyd National Park was believed to be following directions provided by a GPS satellite navigation device when he went over the edge.
The 31-year-old Toukley man had been searching for a walking track in the national park, near Oberon in the state’s Central West, when he fell.
